Time for a Change

Soo......I didn't get into my major. I was a little beat up when I first heard the news, but what's done is done! Dylan and I weren't sure what we should do. I don't have any classes I can take without being accepted and we feel like we are wasting time just waiting until I can re-apply. We decided that maybe a move was in store. I always try to stay optimistic and keep my options open but it was a little difficult to wrap my mind around this. The head of the Graphic Design apartment at BYU is an internationally known designer. He is one of the best in the business across the globe and I was really looking forward to studying under him. We are settled here. I am already attending BYU. And the tuition isn't too hefty. But after much thought and consideration, and much support from our families, we decided a move is probably the best thing right now. Dylan and I are applying at Portland State University and Oregon State University. Both schools have really good programs for Dylan [pre-optometry] and their design programs aren't too shabby either. I am currently taking just one class at BYU and it's a block class. I'll be done February 25th and by then we should have heard back from the schools by then and have made our decision. Hopefully in the not to distant future we will find our selves either in Portland or Corvallis. It's an exciting yet slightly terrifying time in our lives but it is something we are both very much looking forward to :)
